the Glenn Beck program.

Hello, you sick twisted freak.

Welcome to the program.

I need every second of the three hours that we have to broadcast and to talk together.

And we're going to start in Charlotte, but there are so many stories that are tying together that we need to discuss and think about and talk in a different sort of of way.

We begin in Charlotte in 60 seconds.

Yeah, let me tell you about prize picks.

Fantasy sports wasn't supposed to feel like work, but somewhere along the way, it kind of turned into spreadsheets and injury reports and trades and lots of effort.

You don't need the season-long commitment.

You want to go back to what made fantasy fun in the first place and just knowing the game.

Like, for example, this past weekend, had Kyler Murray, Jordan Love, Lamar Jackson on a prize picks lineup, 20 bucks, paid 120 bucks.

It was great.

I got to watch some football and make some cash.

This week, Travis Kelsey might be a little bit distracted by his new marriage situation.

However, I do believe he can get more than a half a yard receiving on Sunday.

That's the number for Travis Kelsey.

I think you could pick that one, whether you know football or not.

If he catches a pass, you're gonna win.

You got a lot of great matchups this weekend, and prize picks is a great way to get in on the action.

Remember, you can mix

something on

It's good to be right.

It really is good to be right.

Well,

unless you're on this program, sometimes it sucks to be right because

it's just kind of like, oh, crap, that happened

again.

And we warned that this was coming.

And so I've got a few warnings today for you and some off-ramps for you that I think are really, really, really vital.

This week of shows has been very, very clarifying to me.

At least for the last couple of days, we've been talking about some of the polls that have come out from those who are under 39 years old, 18 to 39.

And some of the results are really stunning and

a little bit terrifying if we don't wake up soon.

And I want to propose a couple of different theories for the shooting in Charlotte.

And I have not heard these expressed anyplace else, and

I think they're right.

And I'm going to, it's going to, the Charlotte story is going to take you all the way to the Nepal story that just happened yesterday.

And

then I'm going to give give you some exit ramps.

But first, let me start with,

I got that white girl.

That apparently is what the killer said on that Charlotte train where he killed Irina Zarutska.

She was

an immigrant, came from Ukraine, wanted a better life.

came settled here in the Carolinas, thinking America was a much safer place than the war zone.

And a a guy who has been

in front of a judge 14 different times,

14 different times, still walking the streets.

He sits behind her and for no apparent reason just slits her throat.

If you happen to be watching the blaze, I'm going to play it for a reason.

I haven't played this whole video yet, but I want to play it because there's a reason to see all of it.

So let me go ahead and can we roll cut seven, please?

Here she is sitting on a train with a killer right behind.

And he stands up, grabs his knife, and just rakes it across her throat.

She then looks up at him in horror.

She's holding her throat

and then and covering her mouth.

She looks down at her hands and she sees apparently blood.

She's now passing out because she's bleeding so much.

She passes out.

She falls onto the ground and she's laying there

this is five seconds now she's laying on the ground

ten seconds she's laying on the ground she's now moving a little bit

we're now 15 seconds and she's laying on the ground

About 20 seconds before this video cuts off.

She's laying there for 20 seconds, okay, after a violent attack.

Now, I want to show you another camera from a different angle that is showing the full train

from the same camera

distance, but a different perspective.

Shows the back of the train, shows her sitting in the front seat, right by that door, and everybody else on the train.

Go ahead and play cut eight now.

Shows the same scene.

She is sitting there.

He just slits her throat.

You see somebody,

three people.

One person gets up and walks away.

Another person behind the killer, he just sits there and is watching.

And the woman next to her, play this again, please.

The woman sitting across the aisle looks at him, looks at her, watches it happen, take a quick glance and seeing that she's bleeding, does nothing but looks away.

She grabs her purse and is getting ready to walk away.

This girl is bleeding to death.

And no one does anything.

And the killer apparently says, I got that white girl.

The media does not cover this for a week.

Doesn't cover it.

If it wasn't for podcasting, talk radio, and X, you'd never know this story.

You wouldn't have known this story.

Okay.

Now,

let me set the scene here that I don't think she was just, she wasn't killed by a knife.

She was killed by indifference.

And on multiple fronts, this woman was killed by indifference.

Behind her, a man with a history of violence has the blade.

Indifference.

He doesn't care.

And apparently, nobody cares that this guy's in and out of jail and in and out of the court system.

And they just keep letting him out.

indifference to his crimes.

The passengers around her, indifference.

One stands up and walks away.

Woman across the aisle turns her head.

They do nothing, nothing.

So let me ask the first question.

What happens to a people, a society, a civilization, when fear, apathy, or self-preservation outweigh the moral duty to act?

Nobody feels like they have a moral duty to act here.

What happens to that civilization, that society?

You know the answer.

Now the other layer on this is the killer arrest 14 times, 14 times, assaults, armed robbery, five years in prison.

Prosecutors had the chance time and time again to keep him behind bars.

Instead, they choose to release him back into the community.

Police had just been called to his house.

The guy was clearly mentally unstable.

Nobody does anything.

The prosecutor, they're not looking for justice.

This prosecutor is not looking for justice.

This prosecutor has abdicated their role.

And it cost a young woman her life.

So here's what I want to ask you.

Don't we hold people accountable for negligence?

When somebody's inaction leads to tragedy don't we hold them accountable

the answer is yes in 1967 the Supreme Court even ruled that the state itself bears responsibility when due process is denied

but how often does that happen

never

In fact, in New York, we see the opposite.

Citizens who do step in have been prosecuted.

Daniel Penny comes to mind, former Marine.

He intervenes on a subway.

Jordan Neely is threatening passengers.

Neely dies in the struggle, and Penny is the one who faces the charges.

Think about that.

The man who acted to protect others on a train did the right thing.

Prosecutors...

who fail to act against known predators, let them walk free.

They go after this guy.

What message does that send?

It's safer to look away than to get involved.

Don't get involved.

Don't get involved.

That's a crime in and of itself to teach that.

Why aren't we going after prosecutors?

Why aren't we going after them for sheer negligence?

I'm not an attorney.

I'm sure that Mark Levin or somebody like that is much smarter on the law than I am, can give you an answer to this.

I'm just using common sense.

Why can we not go after these people for negligence?

You failed to act and do your duty, and it's costing people their lives.

You know, why aren't we arresting people?

Well, we know that China is involved with Code Pink.

I'm going to give you that story later on in the program today.

We also have in today's newsletter, there is a story that you really need to read.

I'm going to let Jason summarize this.

It's about the Wren Collective.

I'd never even heard of the Wren Collective, but this is an old Soviet-era thing that was trying to push communist movies into our society.

And it's actually funded by several people, but one of the main guys is a former Enron

official.

Okay.

He didn't go to jail.

He should go to jail for this.

So what's the Wren Collective?

It's got a very creepy name as all leftist organizations usually do.

Wren Collective.

But the Wren Collective kind of operates, it seems like, similar to

how we've heard like the World Economic Forum like penetrates the cabinets, you know, in the words of, you know, Klaus Schwab.

They

exert influence on prosecutors all over the country and they push for quote-unquote, you know, criminal justice reform, usually it quotes like cashless bail and things of that nature.

What's interesting here is

they

were founded in 2019 as a nonprofit, but they later became a fiscal project of this group called Social and Environmental Entrepreneurs, or SEE.

Again, another weird acronym.

This was in 2022.

Now, C, SEE, they have the ties to the former Soviet Union, and they pushed for the American Soviet Film Initiative and other Soviet cultural projects to be pushed in the United States.

It's an interesting,

you know, relationship, if anything else.

And especially if you consider, you know, disclosures like remember Yuri Besmanoff from the 1980s, former KGB agent

about how it was a slow process where Soviet communists would infiltrate American culture, eventually justice.

So here is, here is, they are in justice, and here's, in a nutshell, what they do.

This is a for-profit and non-profit company, okay?

Both of them.

And they have

they provide free services to at least 40 far-left prosecutors.

Okay.

And what they've done is they have come in and they've said, Look, we're going to give you, we're going to do all this work.

We're going to do it for free for you in your office to be able to get justice to be served.

And we're just not going to have a name in it.

We don't want you to talk about us or anything.

We're going to do all of this stuff for free and we'll help get you re-elected as well.

This is a shadow organization that has infiltrated our prosecutor's offices in 40 different cities.

We also know that George Soros is doing the same thing.

It is time to go after George Soros.

It is time for this country to finally say we are bringing charges against George Soros and his NGOs.

And if we can't charge him with anything criminal because he's so slippery, we should do exactly what other countries in the world have done, and that is ban all of his NGOs from any kind of activity in the United States.

He is a revolutionary

force who has planted the seeds of destruction in our society, and he has done it in country after country.

The evidence is everywhere.

George Soros needs to be run out of this country and his organization on a rail.

And the same thing with the

the uh

wren collective

never even heard of these people have you heard of it when you hired when you voted for your da did you vote for a shadow organization to do all of this work i know i didn't

nothing good happens in the shadows nothing good happens in the shadows why are we not going after these prosecutors

you can send you can send the national Guard in.

If you're invited by a governor,

you can send the National Guard in, but that's not going to happen.

It's just not going to happen.

And we shouldn't be hoping for that to happen.

But I don't understand why we cannot go after prosecutors who are negligent.

Because that's exactly what happened in Charlotte.

I mean,

I want to remind you, you know, it really chilled me to the bone when I heard him say, I got that white girl, because I was just in Washington, D.C.

with my wife, where a guy who was clearly nuts and a threat was on a bicycle surrounding, I mean, riding around my wife and I as we were walking.

Jason was there.

You were a witness.

We were walking down the street and he's on a bike and he keeps circling us and he keeps pointing to me, looking me right directly in the eye, saying, I'm going to kill me a white man today.

Ah, today's the day I'm going to kill me a white man.

Well, he didn't.

But it sure takes on a whole different feel now that this has happened with his white girl in Charlotte.

And who's responsible for that?

More in just a minute.

First, let me tell you about Relief Factor.

If you're tired of being bullied by pain, tired of waking up every day, wondering what's going to hit you next, your back, your knees, your neck, your shoulders, whatever it is, if you tiptoe out of bed like it's a minefield, bracing for that first shot, the rest of the day is shot.

You're dodging, you're stiffening up, you're compensating.

You know, you are trying to live with pain instead of just live your life.

Here's what you can do.

You can go to relieffactor.com and find relief.

ReliefFactor.com.

It's a daily supplement, not a quick fix.

It's not a mask, but a real strategy for fighting pain from the inside and out.

And it reduces your inflammation.

It supports the healthy joints.

It helps your body free yourself from pain.

And millions have tried it.

And most of them keep using it.

70% of them keep using it month after month because it works.

Stick with it.

Try it for three weeks.

And if you don't notice any difference, you probably won't.

So stop taking it.

But in three weeks, if you notice any difference, keep taking it.

It makes a difference.

It's relieffactor.com.

Call 800, the number 4 relief, 800, the number 4, relief, relieffactor.com.

10 seconds, back to the show.

okay so we're teaching our society that it is safer to look away than to step in we have prosecutors who are negligent and people are getting killed because of it

And then you also have

the media.

Okay, media did not cover this story.

Didn't cover this story.

Why?

Everyone keeps saying it's because it didn't fit their narrative.

Yes, that's true, but I think there is much more to this.

Stories, as the media has shown us and has learned themselves, stories can stir racial tension, right?

Stories can be weaponized to divide communities.

It can be used to ignite anger and push people into the streets.

And that's what makes front page news.

That's what happened with George Floyd, with Jordan Neely.

NGOs and activist groups like the Wren Collective, I'm not sure if they were involved in any of this, but that's what they do.

They all move in with their color revolution tactics, and that ends up burning cities, destroying livelihoods, and celebrating those people who are responsible for all of that destruction.

And who bears the brunt of it?

Well, in Black Lives Matter, it was the poor black communities themselves.

They were abandoned in the name of justice.

What kind of justice was that?

Now, let me bring this back to Charlotte.

The victim is a white refugee.

The perpetrator doesn't fit the script.

So silence, no protest, no headlines, no marches.

Goal's never the truth.

It's control.

But let me suggest another motive from the press.

What's another motive not to report?

Well, let me ask you, because I think you'll know this as soon as i ask this question how how do you how do you feel when you hear that the traditional media failed to cover the story not even one time in the first week after she was killed that they still are now distorting it when they do cover it and they're trying to make it into a race thing or a MAGA thing how do you feel

not asking what you think how do you feel

most likely you feel angry

so if you're angry, are you more inclined to take to the streets or less inclined?

If those people who think like we do, but they're mentally unstable,

are they more or less likely to take justice into their own hands and get out into the streets?

The press knows they can whip up people by what and how they report.

They also know they can whip people up on how and what they don't report.

They've done everything they can to get you to react in a violent way.

They're still doing it today, and we must stay the course.

Glenn Beck.

So much to say.

Look at the transgender community.

And by the way, this is going to take us across the globe to the other side of the globe,

where revolution started yesterday.

We'll get to that in a second.

First, let me tell you about my Patriot Supply.

You know, you get that feeling when you feel like you've forgotten something really important and you don't realize until it's way, way too late.

You know, while I was on vacation, and I said this when I came back, one of the things that I found in my travels on vacation across the country was that we we just, we are people that go from circus to circus.

That's really all that's happening right now.

And this

case in

Charlotte is exactly the same thing.

It's going from one outrage to another outrage.

And the press knows exactly what they're doing.

And

I believe their silence was an attempt to whip you into violent action.

First of all, they didn't cover it because,

you know, it didn't fit the narrative.

And then after a while, you don't cover it

because, well, wait a minute.

You know, when I silence people, when I don't cover something,

what does that do?

I mean,

they know, they know

you're violent.

You've already been labeled and targeted as a violent extremist.

They honestly are baffled by your non-violent reaction reaction in the last 20 years, okay?

Because they think they know us.

It's so strange.

I had about 30 kids at the house yesterday and I was teaching

the Declaration of Independence and

our founding documents and I was

I got up this morning and I read this and I'm thinking about the press and how they think they know us.

And I felt exactly,

I think I felt like Thomas Jefferson must have when he was writing our breakup letter, you know, the Declaration of Independence with King George.

Because in that, it's a plea.

He's saying, look, we owe it to humanity.

We owe it to the world and all mankind to, when we're going to do something this big, we owe the world a reason and we owe the king a reason for doing it.

And basically he's saying, because you don't understand us, we have been trying to tell you that we don't believe the same things that you do.

You believe you're the king and you have the divine right of the king because God has appointed you to be king over us and

we're subjects.

We're not even citizens.

We're just subjects.

And we don't believe that.

We hold these things to be self-evident.

Okay.

And that's the way I feel right now, that the press thinks they know who we are and they won't listen.

We've tried to tell them over and over again.

We've tried to tell the, you know, anybody reasonable who doesn't vote like us.

We've been trying to say we're not those people.

We're not who you say we are.

We don't hate the government.

We just don't trust the government and neither do you quite honestly.

And we shouldn't.

We should hold them accountable.

We know what the problems are, just like you know what the problems are.

You know, many people in your camp are trying to overthrow the United States of America.

I'm not.

I'm trying to return her to her founding principles.

You know, I hold these truths to be self-evident.

You know, we just heard, what's his name?

I want to say, was it Tim Kaine that just said that, you know, they say our rights come from God.

Yes, those are self-evident truths that have all that is the American standard.

You don't believe that.

You believe things like King George believed I don't so how am I the revolutionary today in America

we're not like you

you want to tear things down and destroy we want to build

you believe the lie of that you know there's there's sheep and ranchers and you're the rancher and we're the sheep

Some people are just born to be in charge because they know better.

And because they know better, they can get rich by any corrupt way they choose but you you have to pay your fair share play by the rules and they were gonna make the rules to make it so you can't really ever succeed

they believe they rule not the just the world but our world our personal world because they know better and they're gonna force us to live their way

Sorry, I hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal and there are certain unchangeable rights that were given not by government but by God to me and you.

And I have confidence in the supreme judge of mankind.

I have total confidence.

God is not neutral in the affairs of man.

He's not.

We need to do what is right, righteous, and legal.

I believe it is time we start to pursue legal accountability.

We have to demand laws that strip blanket immunity from prosecutors who are refusing to enforce the law.

If you are going against federal laws, the federal government should be able to go after you as a prosecutor.

We have to have real consequences for negligence in office.

There's consequences for negligence on the street.

Why is there no consequence for negligence in office?

Why is it we can have all those people killed in Afghanistan on our pullout and nobody was held accountable?

Nobody.

How is it we can have prosecutor after prosecutor

act in ways that let criminals back out in the streets that are killing over and over and over again?

Our neighborhoods are not safe.

Our towns are not safe.

Our people are dying from drug cartels.

And yet, nobody's held for negligence.

I mean, I'm being nice by saying negligence.

We need

to begin to

look to the law

in all of our states, and it is high time our Congress Congress gets off their fat, lazy asses and starts to prosecute people.

They know, they already know,

they know,

they have all the evidence.

Why is it being bogged down in Congress?

Because many of them are involved.

Well, maybe it's time you appoint a citizens' council.

Maybe it's time to have citizens in charge of oversight of our government.

People who have not been paid off.

People who are not involved in the corruption.

We have to refuse to forget.

We have to refuse to sit down.

We have to refuse to remain silent.

Even though everything you say might be used in a court of law at some point should things turn ugly.

Refuse to remain silent.

You know, two months ago, I wrote a document.

I've been trying to figure out how to explain internally and to you as well

what the torch is

and what our responsibilities are.

And I wrote a document for

this program

and what

we must do, what I feel our duty is to you and to the country.

And I shared it with a couple of people and they were like, I don't know, that's pretty harsh.

And I'm like, how is that harsh?

That is just common sense and it's true.

And I've been sitting on it and been praying on it, been thinking about it.

And you know what?

Today I got up after thinking about all of this stuff last night, yesterday, and today and seeing what's happening in the world.

And I'm sorry.

I don't care if it's harsh.

I don't care if, I don't think you're going to find it harsh.

I think you're going to go, damn right.

But I want to declare what this program stands for and what

our attempt and what we believe, what I believe we should do as a company.

And the good news is it's my company.

So I want to share that with you next hour because I think

it is the same thing you should make as

your duty as well.

Because I think this goes to all of us, because we're all in this same boat.

We're all in this together.

And

if we don't,

if we, for instance, on this Charlotte story, if we erase Irina's name and just forget about it.

Her death just becomes another casualty of a political narrative war.

And that's what we're in.

We're fighting evil.

And evil is just a political narrative at this point.

That's all it is.

Justice is not persecution.

Justice is not vengeance.

Justice is holding the guilty accountable, whether they have a knife in the shadows or a prosecutor's pen in the courthouse

hold people accountable

you know irina deserves that she deserved that we deserve that and if we don't demand it you know the next victim can be any any one of us and i go back to what i told you just a minute ago how the words of the killer coming out of his mouth i guess i got that white girl

How that reminded me of what was said to me by a crazy man on the streets of Washington, D.C.: Today's the day I'm going to kill me a white man.

As he circled me and pointed at me and looked me in the eye and said it repeatedly,

Today's the day I'm going to kill me a white man.

I mean it.

Today is the day I'm going to kill me a white man.

I got up today and I thought I'm going to kill me a white man.

That was a clear threat.

And that's exactly what happened to Irina.

And if we don't stop this,

you may be the next victim.

Because these people are empowered.

They're in the streets.

And

if they are

whipped up by the media,

if they are revolutionaries, they need to go to jail.

If they are just crazy people,

They need to be removed from society and put into a treatment program or being held

until they are sane.

But we're not doing any of those things because our mayors are unaccountable.

Our prosecutors are unaccountable.

No one is being held to anything except for you.

That's not a society that will last.

So what are we going to do about it?

I'll share that with you coming up because I also have to share with you what happened on the other side of the globe yesterday because it's a warning.

It is coming here.

It is coming here.

In just a second.

First, let me tell you about the

International Fellowship of Christians and Jews terror struck in Jerusalem just two days ago.

A gunman opened fire on innocent people waiting at a bus stop.

You know what's amazing is the Arab driver got off that bus,

opens up the door, gets off the bus, he walks away, gunmen come on.

Hmm, did he know something that the others didn't know?

Six people were killed, dozen more injured.

Unfortunately, this is, you know, this is the usual headline in Israel.

This is daily life for people in Israel.

And the world just moves on, but the fellowship, the international fellowship of Christians and Jews, they're still there.

They're helping victims, supporting first responders.

They're even providing resources to the IDF.

They stand in the gap when the lives are on the line and the rest of the world looks away.

Right now, as the Jewish High Holy Days approach, they're also delivering food aid to Israel's poor and elderly people.

People who live in retirement homes are finally able to celebrate Rosh Hashanah with their community because of the fellowship's support.

They can fight their own wars.

But if we can supply flak jackets, if we can supply armored vehicles for people who are

rushing to and from scenes for rescue,

why wouldn't we do that?

Well, if you think about it, your home is more than just where you sleep.

It's a symbol of everything that you've built, everything that you've worked for, and everything that you've managed to hold on to in a world that's constantly trying to take things away.

That deed with your name on it is valuable, not just to you, but unfortunately to criminals.

Because these days, criminals aren't just going after your credit cards, they're targeting your home's title.

And it's shockingly shockingly easy.

They find it online, they forge your signature, they transfer ownership, and suddenly you're not the owner anymore.

You're the victim.

And the banks and the courts and the authorities, they are not built to deal with this kind of crime.

But Home Title Lock is.

It's the only service that constantly monitors your title, alerts you to suspicious activity, and helps you shut down fraud before it becomes foreclosure.

They're not just watching your home.

They're defending the very idea of ownership in a digital age where lines are blurred and theft doesn't always come with a ski ski mask.

If you own a home, if you're protecting that title, you want to make sure that's a non-negotiable thing.

Because in the 21st century, the battleground isn't just your front yard.

Sometimes it's your digital yard.

And Home Title Lock wants you to be able to fight back.

AI is a big part of this.

And, you know, AI is changing the world, sure.

But don't let it change the names on your home's title.

Our chief researcher, Jason Buttrell, is with us.

And, you know, I've been saying that we need to start holding people accountable.

It's time to go after George Soros.

It is time that the government stops him from what he's doing in the United States, and that's working in the shadows,

subverting our nation.

And there are all kinds of these lefty NGOs that are doing things like this.

Tell me about the MacArthur Foundation.

Yeah, this comes from Megan Basham.

She pointed this out.

The sheer amount of some of these organizations is just, you can't even, it's hard to even fathom.

But the MacArthur Foundation gave $3.3 million to Meckleberg County.

This is where they

him.

14 times they let him go.

They gave this money to, quote, reduce the jail population with initiatives that included alternatives to let people out of jail, basically.

And I don't know what to do after that.

But I can't, it's almost like these people are using the old, Stu will remember this, the old Seahawks

defensive strategy of they were all holding.

We all knew it, but they're like, what are they going to do?

They can't get us all.

So now we have all these left-wing organizations.

Like, well, I guess they can't get us all.

We'll just all contribute to, you know, contribute to the downfall of society, but what are they going to do?

There's so many of us.

We're an army.

Yeah.

Glenn, can I draw attention to something you highlighted many, many years ago, which was a strategy change by the left because they were, for a long time, spending a lot of money going after these big elections and fighting it out at the presidential level.

And of course, they still attempt that.

But you highlighted this with the district attorneys.

You'd highlighted it with the Secretary of States.

They changed their strategy to go after basically cheap elections.

Elections where people weren't paying a lot of attention.

They weren't funneling tons and tons of money.

It was a lot easier to get these people through.

And they were able to put in these type of crazy people.

I would say a lot of times without the knowledge of a lot of the, you know, maybe call them normal Democrats that were voting for them.

And I think a lot of them.

A lot of people had no idea.

A lot of times they really were just hiding it.

And it worked for a long time.

I think people like DeSantis have taken steps to eliminate a lot of that in Florida.

And that might be the action you're talking about when it comes to the legal approach: to go through governors when you can, but it's not an easy problem to unwind.

I just know that

we all know that one of the key people, and we should go after all of them, but one of the key people that have destroyed our prosecutors is George Soros.

And that money has got to be cut off.

All right, let me tell you about good ranchers.

Last year, over 4 billion pounds of meat was imported into the United States.

That's a ton of meat and more than a ton, 4 billion pounds of meat.

A lot of it was labeled product of the U.S.

It wasn't raised here.

It wasn't processed here.

But thanks to loopholes, it can still find a place on your plate pretending to be American meat.

And it is time for this to stop.

Stop being meat, buying meat that lies to you.

Stop settling for grocery stores that lie to you.

This is

the Glen Beck Program.

Hello, America.

Welcome to the Glen Beck Program.

I want to share something

that I wasn't planning on sharing, at least not yet, until I started going through the news last night and this morning, and I saw what this whole thing is turning into in Charlotte

and how many lefties are involved in all of this stuff and what's happened to our prosecutors and to our press and everything else.

So I want to share something that I wrote a few months ago as something that was trying, I was trying to help clarify in my own mind what my job is, what the job of the torch, if you will.

Part of that is to bring you the truth every day, okay?

It's what I do, try to do every day, but I think there is a new

element that not only involves me, but also involves you.

And I wrote something a couple of months ago and I shared it with a couple of people on my staff and they were like, I don't know,

that's pretty pointed.

It's, I mean, it seems a little extreme.

And I'm like, that's not extreme.

I don't think it's extreme.

I don't think you'll find it extreme.

Maybe you will.

Maybe I'm just, maybe it's just me, right?

Oh my gosh, I'm so extreme.

I think it's just common sense and it is a responsibility for all of us.

So I want to share that with you in 60 seconds.

First, let me tell you about Z-Factor.

Remember the last time you had a good night, solid eight hours of restful sleep?

Those were the days.

You know, it seems like fairy tales.

You know, you watch your kids sleep now.

You know, teenagers can sleep forever.

I need to sleep.

I need to sleep.

so i wrote a document because i am trying to explain to

my staff to myself

so i can then translate this on what the torch really is because the torch is something that i'm starting in january it is a pretty massive move in my career um

and uh

and I

it's gangly it has so many different arms to it, but they're all pulling in the same direction.

And part of that is to expose the truth.

And that's in current events.

And that's what this show is for: to expose what's really going on, to help you understand

not only what happened yesterday, but what it means, what's coming over the horizon tomorrow, and what to do about it today.

And to to hold people,

to hold a record of what has happened, because that's one of the other arms of the torch, is history.

And when we think of history, we think of history, you know, the old dusty powder wig kind of history, but history is happening right now.

What happened in Charlotte is now part of American history.

And you have to know history to be able to see

what happened to a society, what happened to this civilization, and how do we get back if we choose to get back?

So I wrote something a couple of months ago and I want to share it with you.

It was our principles of truth and duty.

And this was something that I wrote for my staff.

But I think it applies to everybody, you know, that cares to heed the warning.

There comes a time in the life of a nation, a people, or even a single soul, when silence becomes betrayal.

Not Not because silence itself is evil, but because it allows evil to metastasize.

When the foundations of liberty are under assault through lies, miseducation, bureaucratic rot, or quiet erosion of conscience, it becomes not just advisable, but incumbent upon us to act.

This is not meant to be a call to arms.

This is a call to accounting, a call to record, to expose, to resist the machinery of falsehood with clarity, with courage, and a relentless commitment to the truth.

We have a duty to document.

Now again, this was meant for internal use, but I think this is all of our duty.

We have a duty to document.

We have an urgent obligation to gather, organize, and preserve every fact, every document, every statement, and record,

record this, put it on the record.

Anything that reveals how truth has been suppressed and freedom distorted.

Because tyranny rarely kicks down the front door.

It seeps through the cracks, rewritten textbooks, judicial overreach, regulatory capture, and a media more loyal to narrative than fact.

Our mission is to leave no stone unturned.

We must collect evidence from those who have been silenced, the whistleblowers, the scholars, the citizens.

We must document the abuses in education, religion, politics, and the press.

We must preserve the testimonies of those who still remember what America was meant to be so that the record can't be altered by those who wish to remake it in their image.

This is a stewardship, not of history alone, but of memory.

2.

the necessity of public exposure

to give people information is no longer enough

collecting information is no longer enough truth locked in a drawer is no different from truth that never existed Our task is to make the darkness visible, to shine a light on it so intensely that no rational mind can deny what it sees.

Therefore, we must publish, we must speak, we must create platforms immune to the corrosive pull of centralized control.

If the towers of culture no longer permit dissent, we must build new towers.

If the institutions of learning no longer teach, then we must build new institutions.

We must teach it in our homes.

We must teach it in our churches, in our communities.

Through the digital ether it must be taught truth must be weaponized but not to wound

simply to wake

three

the importance of naming names

it is not enough anymore to condemn condemn evil in the abstract The machinery of corruption operates through people, through planners, financiers, bureaucrats, ideologues.

We must, with discernment and precision, identify those who have abused their power, manipulated the system, or enabled tyranny.

Not for vengeance, but for accountability.

A future generation must be able to trace how the fire spread so they may build fire breaks that last.

4.

the spiritual cost of inaction

though this isn't a religious document it should be known there is a spiritual dimension to cowardice when good men and women fail to speak they don't merely preserve their safety they transfer their burden to those who will come after them Every truth left unsaid becomes a lie the next generation must live under.

We all will be asked, what did you know?

When did you know it?

And what did you do with what you knew?

We cannot give the answer.

I waited for somebody else.

5.

The power of the individual.

This statement of purpose is not for a mob.

It's not for the crowd.

It is for the individual, the mother, the teacher, the soldier, the student, who still believes the truth matters and who's willing to carry the weight of remembering and resisting.

No contribution is too small.

None is too small.

No act of courage is wasted.

You may at some point be the

last light in your circle.

That is all the more reason to to burn brighter.

To remain silent now is to become complicit.

To act is not optional, it is essential.

Therefore, it is our duty to document, to expose, to speak,

to teach,

and to stand.

because in the end,

history is not written by those who whisper in safety.

History is written by those who stood when standing cost them dearly.

That is the path to restoring the promise.

That is our duty, our responsibility,

and our honor.

I don't know how you can find that radical.

I don't know how you can find that to be anything other than

true.

and I share that with you today

because

I knew this when I wrote this,

but I it feels more important today as I'm seeing what is happening in our in our country, just with this Charlotte thing.

There are people that are

hell-bent in tearing us apart.

There are people that are negligent.

You know, those people on the train that did nothing.

Now some did stand up eventually and tried to help, but it was too late.

And I don't know if you could have saved her anyway.

I don't judge those people.

I don't know what was going through their head.

I didn't like the action.

I didn't like the fact that nobody went to her.

You know, the woman sitting across just turned her face, turned her head while this woman is dying on the floor.

I mean, I think you have a, you're going to pay a personal spiritual cost for that.

Although, I could be wrong.

I don't know what was going through that woman's head.

But if we don't act, if we don't, if if we only protect ourselves and we don't stand

You know, this is what we learned after 9-11

Remember all the planes went down because nobody did anything because they thought it was only them but once that last plane over Pennsylvania

They were able to get messages to and from

their people, their families on the ground and once they found out, no, we are just one of many planes being taken down, they knew

they had to act.

They had to stand together.

Let's roll.

That's heroic.

We have a responsibility.

You have a responsibility to record facts.

So at some point people can be held responsible.

For instance, I am waiting,

I am waiting for this government to hold George Soros responsible for what he has done to the freedom of the West.

There are several countries that will not allow his NGOs in.

He's not welcome in several countries.

They know exactly what he's done.

They know what he's capable of.

They know what he really is trying to do, no matter what he says.

And we just, we just accept it.

He's doing it to our cities, to our children.

He's helping these prosecutors turn our country into a hellhole, a hellscape, a murder scene.

And we don't do anything about it.

I'm not calling for vengeance and I'm not calling for violence.

I am calling for justice.

I'm calling for common sense.

We must, as a nation, stand against what he is doing.

And he's not alone.

The Code Pink thing, they were out trying to disrupt President Trump and J.D.

Vance and Marco Rubio.

Pete Hegseth was there, other officials.

They were having dinner.

And they, you know, they're marching out in front and they're trying to, you know, do everything they can to disrupt everything.

They're chanting, they feast while Gaza starves.

Free D.C., free Palestine.

Stop terrorizing communities all over the world.

Shut up.

You know, if you were honest, maybe, maybe I could tolerate it.

But you're not.

You're not.

You haven't been honest in anything that you've done.

And beyond that, you are funded by the Chinese Communist Party.

through Neville Singham.

Why aren't we going after him?

Why aren't we as a nation shutting things down?

And I'm not saying opinions.

You can have an opinion.

You can march in the street.

You can say things that I vehemently disagree with.

But when you are funding organizations who intent, their intent is to cause revolution in our country,

don't we have a responsibility?

We as citizens must document who these people are, how they're doing it, and then we must call for accountability.

And our government must act.

Otherwise, it ends the way it's ending now on the other side of the globe.

I want to bring you a story that you probably didn't even pay attention to if you even heard it yesterday.

But it is a very important

story

because it relates right directly back to you and us.

More in a minute.

First, let me tell you about Simply Safe.

Pretty much everybody talks about you know they talk tough until something goes bump in the night and that's when your brain starts inventing scenarios you know was that the dog was that the wind was that somebody you know jiggling the back door handle at 2 a.m.

are they fixing to break into the house you don't know you don't know and not knowing is the worst part that's why there's simply safe it's top of the line home security that doesn't just alert you when something is wrong it actually helps prevent things from going wrong in the first place we're talking about cameras motion sensors, glass break detectors, 24/7 monitoring from real people who actually respond when you need them.

And the best part is, it's easy to install.

You can set the whole thing yourself up in about 30 minutes.

No need for drills or wires or, you know, no strangers traipsing through your house.

It's simply safe.

They give you back the one thing that matters the most, and that is peace of mind.

So go ahead, let the wind rattle the windows.

You got this covered.

Simply safe.

Simply safe is protection that is actually simple common sense.

Simply safe.com/slash back.

When you go there now, you'll claim 50% off a new system

with your monitoring program.

That's simply safe.com/slash back.

There is no safe like simply safe.

10 seconds station ID.

Okay.

There's a couple of things that you should be aware of that are happening around the globe.

First of all, Jason, can you give me an update on what happened in Poland yesterday?

I'm reading before I go to bed.

There's drones crossing the border, Russia crossing the border with their drones in Poland.

What is this?

Yeah, it looks like the drones came from Belarus,

which is a new development.

and the Belarusians used, or the Russians in Belarus used, Polish airspace to get to Ukraine.

This is one of the

nightmare scenarios of something like this happening, and then them

ending up attacking a NATO asset in the process.

Well, NATO has responded with invoking or activating Article 4.

Not Article 5, but Article 4.

So this is a serious development.

What is Article 4?

So Article 4 basically says we're going to get together and as a collective and start looking at responses or not responses, but looking at how we can all get together and provide a defense, an immediate defense, if we need to.

So they have escalated it a little bit, but

it's not imminent.

It's not like an attack is going to happen, but they are concerned.

I saw one of the, you know, one of the defense secretaries of one of the warmongers over in the, you know, that have been saying, we got to go out and wipe out Russia, one of those guys

over in Europe last night saying, we got to go out and we got to get these airplanes up and we got to, you know, go in and get Russia.

And I'm like, that's the worst thing that could happen.

Was this a mistake or did they know what they were doing?

Russia, yes or no?

No.

We'll go into it more.

Glenn back.

Tonight on Blaze TV, it's my 9 p.m.

Wednesday night special.

We're going to cover the years of progressive manipulation and the Democrat control of our major cities.

And we have major crime happening in all of our major cities now.

Minnesota, North Carolina is a great one.

And it's almost daily now that another major disaster seems to happen.

Washington, D.C.

has been cleaned up by President Trump, and the stats stats are actually really shocking.

We're going to give them to you tonight.

Crime is down all across the board, but

can that be applied to other cities?

Should that be applied to other American cities?

Could it be copied in Chicago?

Tonight, I'm going to show you what the Constitution says, and is there anything the president can do?

You might be surprised by this.

I'm also going to show you the real crime stats in some of these cities.

The left, you know, they keep claiming everything is fine.

They claim crime is going down, but is that even true?

You'll find out tonight.

Trump's war on democratic run crime havens is the name of the show.

Can he save our city starts tonight on the Wednesday night special, 9 p.m.

Blaze TV, or on my YouTube channel, youtube.com slash Glenn Beck.

This,

you know, it's amazing how this

narrative

from

Charlotte is

really starting to change and I think take a dark, dark turn.

Yeah, well, it's hard to get darker than I think the beginning of it, but uh, it does seem to be getting maybe even worse.

I, I will, maybe we could talk about this later on if we have time, but I am interested in what you one thing you brought up in the past half hour, which is the sort of bystanders that were involved in this situation and what they should have done, how they should have reacted to this.

I mean, a lot of the online stuff I'm seeing is, you know,

everyone should have jumped in immediately, and it's just just such a

tough story.

And you, of course, want people to do that.

But I think also putting yourself in that position is a little more difficult than many are applying when it comes to

the logic of you in that moment.

So I don't know if we have time to talk about that.

I think that's a good question.

So

you just set the Marine in the room off.

But

we're going to get into that because I happen to agree with you, Stu.

I think that it's a very tough situation.

I don't want to get it.

By the way, I should clarify.

All Marines should jump in immediately.

I'm not 100% sure.

I agree with that.

Right.

I agree with that.

All Marines should.

Now, by the way, our society is sending a different message to people in the military as we saw in New York, right?

Like

when military members do jump in and make these situations not happen, that's a totally different story.

But we should get into that a few time.

Yeah, we'll get into it atop of next hour, so atop of hour three.

You don't want to miss it.

I want to talk to you here for a minute of something remarkable that happened in Nepal.

Their government is facing mass protests over corruption.

And

this is, they say this is a republic.

I'm not up on my government of Nepal,

but they say there's free and fair elections.

You know, they say that about every place.

You know, and it's a democratic republic.

But

beyond what they say, I don't know if any of that is true.

It could be a comm.

I know that they have a big communist wing of

their parliament.

So they're at least dealing with some of that.

But what happened yesterday, there's all this corruption.

See if any of this sounds familiar.

Is there any corruption in any country you can think of that's not being addressed?

And the government decided that the solution to this was to ban social media, to just shut it off.

To say, hey,

that laptop story is not true.

Shut down any conversations on that.

They went a step further.

They just shut all the media off and they silenced the voice of the people.

Well, gee, what do you think might happen, deputy dog?

The country exploded.

19 people dead.

The prime minister is forced to resign.

Mobs chasing the ministers through the streets.

Airports shut down.

I mean, they dragged some of these people out of the streets and then beat them.

Gee, who predicted that could happen here in the the United States?

Here's the thing.

When a government decides that its own survival depends on silencing the people, it has lost its legitimacy.

Okay?

That's not the spark of collapse.

That's the smoke after the fire has already been raging for a while.

Now,

stop before you think, well, that's Nepal, faraway land, fragile politics.

You don't know the politics of Nepal.

Don't kid yourself.

I don't.

You don't either.

But look around.

We are quickly, we're flirting with the idea of cutting off social media during riots in 2023.

That was France.

We're flirting with it.

We were doing it under Joe Biden.

We did it during COVID.

We shut people down.

The UK passed an online safety law so broad it could be weaponized against dissent the next time London is set on fire.

They're already arresting people for what they say online.

The EU has armed itself with regulations that force the platforms to strip out whatever Brussels says is harmful.

These are Western democracies.

These are also Western democracies that are now toying with authoritarian kind of concepts and instincts.

All what happened in Nepal rhymes with stuff that is happening in the West.

And there's a revolutionary mood here here in the United States as well.

And it is driven by young people who feel robbed by opportunity, people who are tired of corruption, sick of the elites telling them to shut up while the powerful play a different set of rules, like they're playing a different game entirely.

And it's also revolutionary

actual revolutionaries who have wanted to overthrow this government for a long time inside our own homes now, inside our universities, inside the House of Representatives and Congress and

the administration.

There are revolutionaries that want to topple us.

And then there's people like you that just want it to be fixed, who feel a little bit like the people who feel robbed of opportunity, tired of corruption, sick of the elites telling them to shut up.

Just like the youth.

You're barely making it.

The youth is barely making it.

We're all in this boat, but we all keep allowing ourselves to be separated.

And what is our outlet?

Our outlet is social media.

It's what allows us to say and be heard.

Be heard.

It's imperfect.

It's messy.

It's loud.

It is wrong a lot of the times.

It causes more problems sometimes than it's worth, it feels.

But that's a megaphone that is in the hands now of everybody.

And you can't take it away from people.

You cannot.

People who are outraged by what's being done to their country or our country, they go online to expose what the press refuses to expose.

Look at Charlotte.

Look at Charlotte.

We're shouted down.

We're called names.

We're called conspiracy theorists, but at least it can be said: you cut that off and you don't calm the storm.

You ignite it.

History is screaming warnings to the West.

The Soviet Union silenced dissent and it collapsed under the weight of lies.

The Chinese Communist Party survived Tiananmen Square by wielding an iron fist.

But that was at the cost of freedom for generations now.

And the founders knew all of this.

This is why the First Amendment's not about, you know, you know, taxes or armies or rent control.

It's about speech and assembly and the press.

Our founders lived under authoritarian rule.

They knew it.

And they knew that silencing people was never going to secure peace.

It guarantees rebellion.

So I was thinking about this yesterday and thinking about what is so possible here in America

and what we can do as a people, what our government needs to do.

First thing, I think three things.

Our government needs to do three things.

One, address

the grievances honestly.

If corruption is the charge, investigate it transparently.

Publish the timelines.

Publish the documents.

Don't hide.

Don't spin.

Just expose it all and let the chips fall where they may.

That's not happening.

It's happening in some cases, not all cases, and it should.

Two,

our government must make it very clear they protect the public square, even when the voices are angry, especially maybe

when they're angry.

Because

you must, as a government, prove

that you can be trusted at a time with dissent.

If you can be trusted in a time of great dissent, then you have legitimacy.

You shut that down, you're illegitimate.

You're just, you're not a government.

It's weak and pathetic, and the people won't stand for it.

Third thing

is de-escalate.

Don't militarize.

This is one of the things I'm very concerned about with President Trump.

saying he's going to go into multiple cities.

I would like to see the constitutional underpinnings of that.

And if it is against the Constitution, which I believe the way it is being presented would be unconstitutional.

If it is unconstitutional, then it must not be done.

Soldiers on the streets

do not give confidence to people in the long run.

It doesn't.

If you're a country where you need soldiers on the streets, you're a country in trouble.

When you put soldiers on the streets like they are in England right now, we're a long way away from this, thank God.

But they're putting soldiers on the streets to silence people.

When there's curfews, you know, when there's a shutdown, any attempt to control the narrative, that screams that the government is afraid of its own people.

That's what's happening in

Europe and in England.

They need to silence the people who believe in England, who are English, because they are terrified that they can be toppled.

If that truth gets out, if that picks up, they'll be toppled.

They'll lose every election.

And they can't have that.

They are afraid of their own people.

And fear is contagious.

So those are the things our government should do.

But the things that we should do, do not be provoked into violence.

This is something

I've been saying this forever, but today it's kind of a theme on the show because I think that's another reason why the press is not covering Charlotte.

They know that you're getting more and more angry by this.

Every time they publish something like, oh, it's the racist white people.

Look, they're just against black people killing people in trains.

Yeah, I'm against everybody killing everybody on trains.

And that they know by airing those things,

it does a couple of things.

It makes their clicks go up and it increases the temperature in the country.

And there are too many people that want the temperature to be raised.

Don't be provoked into violence.

Don't despair.

Document the truth.

Support the institutions that defend liberty.

Organize around specific, measurable reforms.

Stay engaged legally, peacefully.

So when somebody tries to blur the lines, lines,

you know, illegal with undesirable, there's a firewall of citizens standing in the way.

We have to be very, very clear.

The West is being tested right now.

We're being tested.

We have been given a republic.

We're being tested.

Can we keep it?

Freedom is the only stabilizer that works in the long run.

We can't fall into the trap of Europe or the one that Nepal just fell into, thinking that control is safer than liberty.

It's not.

If you defend the principles that built this republic, if you stand calmly but firmly for transparency, freedom of speech, rule of law, then even in the worst storms, we will be the last free people standing.

And that means there's hope, not just for us, but for the rest of the world.

Real, true hope.

Tomorrow,

you know what the date is tomorrow?

September 11th.

If you're my age, that brings back a lot of memories, a lot of memories.

In this country,

those under 39, they don't remember it.

It didn't bring back that same kind of feeling, and it's been buried.

You know, for

a lot of families, it's still personal.

That never went away.

Wives without husbands, kids who grew up without dads, first responders who ran towards the fire and never came home.

This is why Tunnel to Towers was founded to honor that sacrifice.

And they do it by taking care of the people left behind.

Mortgage-free homes for fallen first-responder families, smart homes for severely injured veterans, support for Gold Star families who paid the ultimate price.

This is not just about helping.

It's about keeping a promise that our country made that we forget all the time.

You know, it's a reminder that the freedom we enjoy today came at the cost of somebody.

Somebody else has already paid that, the ultimate price.

So, tomorrow as September 11th approaches, once again, ask yourself, what kind of country do you want to be?

One that remembers or one that acts?

I want to be one that acts.

Tunnel to Towers is acting.

Let's join them.

$11 a month.

We can never forget the sacrifices of our country's greatest heroes, and $11 a month will help put homes, you know, put these people in homes, save people's homes and their families.

That's t the number two t dot org.

There you have it.

The truth.

Stripped down like a fence post in a prairie storm.

Glenn Beck returns after this.

If the government can't be trusted to fix a pothole, why would you

trust them with your drinking water?

And, you know, tap water in America is kind of a disaster, right?

It's a decades-old pipe system pushing out a chemical cocktail of lead and rust and whatever else managed to hitch a ride through the plumbing.

Just ask the folks in Flint, Michigan, how all that worked out.

Lead exposure isn't just gross, it's dangerous, and it's been linked to brain damage and cancer and developmental issues and kids and a host of other problems we're just probably beginning to understand.

And yet millions of Americans still drink straight from the tap because I don't know what else are you supposed to do?

Well, the answer is Cove Pure.

It's a sleek countertop water purifier that doesn't require a plumber, doesn't need to be drilled into your kitchen, and doesn't play games.

It's clear wave technology strips out 99.9% of contaminants, you know, lead, PFAs, pharmaceuticals, the stuff, you know, that doesn't belong in your water.

You just plug it in, you choose your temperature, and for once in your life, you actually get water that, this is going to sound like a miracle, tastes like water.

So, don't wait around for the government to solve this because, as you know, they will not.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

The U.S.

Attorney for Western District of North Carolina had a press conference yesterday about

the stabbing that Irina's family

had to

deal with now,

having her buried in the U.S.

Here's Russ Ferguson.

Cut one, please.

After Irina's death, the embassy in Ukraine called and said, we'll help you bring her home.

And her family said, no.

They said she loved America.

We're going to bury her here.

So I think we can give her an America to be proud of.

As Mr.

Barnacle said, something here is broken, and we're here to fix it.

When is she being buried?

That should be, I mean, can you imagine if that's a public burial and a public funeral?

That thing could be massive, just massive.

All right, more in just a minute.

This is

the Glenbeck program.

Hello, America.

Welcome to the Glenbeck Program.

There's a lot going on.

Today is the

end, the 30-day mark of the, if you will, occupation of Washington, D.C.

The president could send troops in or send in the National Guard for 30 days in Washington, D.C.

under an emergency.

He declared an emergency.

After that, Congress needs to approve.

What is happening in Washington, D.C.?

What is happening with Congress?

And can he send troops into other cities?

This is something we're going to be talking quite a bit about tonight on our 9 p.m.

special.

We're going to show you the ins and outs of all of this and what's really going on in these cities, the actual crime stats, and the shocking numbers of the crime stats and what has happened since Donald Trump actually started enforcing the law in Washington, D.C.

That's tonight at 9,

only on Blaze TV, my Wednesday night special.

We're going to get to some of that here.

And also, I want to spend some time because we've been debating

off the air

about

the people that were on the train with Irina

Zarutska.

You know, when you watch that video at first, you're like, these people did nothing.

They did nothing.

And there's part of me that says, you know, you have a responsibility to act.

But there's another part of me that says, you know, don't judge because what would you have done or what would you have wanted your wife to do in that situation if she was sitting next to somebody that just had their neck cut by a killer who is still on the train with them?

We're going to talk about that here in just a second.

First, let me tell you about Patriot Mobile.

Some people make noise, others make a difference.

In a country where everything feels really super loud, where every issue is a shouting match, Patriot Mobile is just quietly quietly building something very powerful they're America's only Christian conservative wireless provider no celebrity campaigns no corporate virtue signaling just a solid mobile service and a mission they support pro-life causes religious liberty first responder veterans and they do it without apology but they do it out in the light they let everybody know because while the other guys are busy trying to please the mob patriot mobile is standing firm on values that actually mean something And the best part is they use the same cell towers as the major carriers, so you're not sacrificing coverage to take a stand.

You're choosing to align yourself with a company that believes in faith and family and freedom.

No noise, just results.

Patriot Mobile, a quiet power for a loud world.

Well, hello, Stu, our executive producer, and also hello to our chief researcher, Jason Buttrell.

Hi, Stu.

Glenn, how are you?

You know.

I'm torn on how I feel about the people on the train because

my first instinct is they did nothing.

They did nothing.

Then

my, well, sit down and, you know,

you know, you're going to be judged, so be careful on judging others.

What would I have done?

What would I want my wife to do in that situation?

Yeah, those are two different questions, by the way.

I think

they go far apart from each other.

I mean, what would I want myself to do?

I mean, it's tough to put yourself in that situation.

It's very easy to watch a video on the internet and talk about your heroism.

Like, everybody can do that very easily on Twitter, and everyone is.

You know, when you're in a vehicle that doesn't have an exit with a guy who just murdered someone in front of you and has a dripping, you know, blood off of a knife that's standing 10 feet away from you, 15 feet away from you,

there is probably a different standard there that we should all kind of consider and maybe give a little grace to what I saw at least was a woman sitting across the

aisle.

I think there is a difference there.

But when you talk about that question, I think those two questions are definitive.

I know what I would want myself to do.

I'd hope I'd act in a way that

didn't

completely embarrass myself afterward.

But I also think when I'm thinking of my wife,

My advice to my wife would not be to jump into the middle of that situation at all costs.

Now, she might do it anyway.

She's actually know, probably a heck of a lot stronger than I am.

But she might do it anyway.

Yes.

That would not be my advice to her.

Now, maybe

once the guy has certainly is out of the area and you don't think the moment you step into that situation he's going to turn around and decide to kill you too, then of course, obviously anything you could do to step in.

Not that I think there was much anyone on the train could do.

I mean, I don't think that there was an outcome change no matter what anyone on that train did,

unfortunately.

But what I want her to step in, well, of course, if she really, if she felt she was safe, yes.

But, man, I mean, think about, you said your wife, think about your daughter.

Your daughter's on that train just watching someone else get murdered like that.

Would you advise your daughter?

to jump into a situation like that?

That girl sitting across the aisle was somebody's daughter.

I don't know, man.

I would, I, you know,

as a dad, would I advise?

Hmm, no.

As a human being, would I hope that my daughter or my wife or that I would get up and at least comfort that woman while she's dying on the floor of a train?

Yeah.

I would hope that my daughter, my son, that I would, and, you know, I have more confidence in my son or daughter or my wife doing something courageous more than I would.

But,

you know, I think I have a more realistic picture of myself than anybody else.

And I'm not sure that, I'm not sure what I would do in that situation.

I know what I would hope I would do, but I also know what I fear I would do.

But I would hope that I would have gotten up and

at least tried to help her.

you know, help her up off the floor, at least be there with her as she's seeing her life, you know, spill out in under a minute.

And that's the other thing we have to keep in mind.

This all happens so rapidly.

A minute

will seem like a very long period of time in that situation, but it's a very short period of time in real life.

Yeah, you watch the video, Glenn.

I don't need the video to change my position on this,

but it does seem like there was

someone who did get there eventually to help, right?

Like I saw someone seemingly trying to put pressure on her neck.

Yeah.

Yeah.

And tried to give her CPR and it, you know,

no hope at that point.

But how long of a time period would you say that was?

Do you know off the top of your head?

I don't know.

I don't know.

I know that we watched the video that I saw.

I haven't seen past

30 seconds after she

is down.

And, you know, for 30 seconds, nothing is happening.

And, you know, that's, that is a, that is not a very long period of time

in reality.

Especially, I saw the pace he was walking.

He certainly can't be, you know, he may have left the actual

train car by 30 seconds to a minute, but he wasn't that far away.

Like he was still in visual, he could still turn around and look and see what's going on at that point.

So certainly still a threat, I guess is my point.

He's not, he has not like left the area.

This is not that type of situation.

You know, I, I, I, look, as you point out, I think, you know, if I could be super duper sexist for a moment here,

sort of my dividing line might just be men and women.

You know, I don't know if it's, if that's a,

uh,

you're not supposed to say that, I suppose, these days, but like, you know, there is a difference there.

And, you know, if I'm a mind, if I'm a man, you know, I would be, I would want my son to jump in on that, I suppose.

You know, I don't know if he could do anything about it, but you'd you'd expect a at least a grown man to be able to go in there and do something about it a woman you know i don't know maybe uh maybe i'm um uh i you know here's the thing i don't here's the thing that i i

that causes me to say no you should have jumped in and that is

you know you've already killed one person on the train

So you've proven that you're a killer.

And anybody who would have screamed and got up and was with her in there, she's dying, she's dying, get him, get him, then the whole train is responsible for stopping that guy, you know.

And if you don't stop him after he's killed one person, if you're not all as members of that train,

if you're not stopping him,

you know,

the person at the side of that girl would be the least likely to be killed.

It'd be the ones that are standing up and trying to stop him from getting back to your daughter or your wife or you.

There was a video, speaking of men and women and their roles in this, there was a video that was circling social media yesterday,

Sweden, in Sweden.

And it was a group of officials up on a stage and one of like the main, I think it was like a health official woman, collapses on stage, completely passes out.

All the men kind of look away, or I don't know if they were looking away or pretending like they didn't know what was going on.

There was another woman standing directly beside the woman that passed out, immediately springs into action, jumps on top, grabs her pant leg, grabs her shoulder, spins her over, and starts providing care.

What did she have that the other guys did not, or women?

She was a sheepdog.

There is a, and this is my issue, and I completely agree with Stu, I completely agree with you.

There's some people that do not respond this way.

My issue is the proportion of sheepdogs versus just people that don't really know how to react.

That is diminishing in Western society and American society.

We see it all the time in these critical actions, I mean, circumstances.

There are men and women, and it's actually a meme, that fantasize about hordes of people coming to attack their home and family.

And they sit there and say, I got it.

You guys go.

I'm staying behind while I smoke my cigarette and wait for the hordes to come because I will sacrifice myself.

There are men and women that fantasize of block my highway.

Go ahead, block my highway.

I'm going to do something about it.

They fantasize about someone holding up a liquor store, or not a liquor store, a convenience store or something, because they will step in and do something.

My issue now is that proportion of sheepdogs in society is disappearing.

Just on statistical fact, there should be one within that train car, and there were none.

Yeah, I mean, they did not respond.

And we see what happens when they do with Daniel Penny, right?

Like our society vilifies them and tries to crush their existence.

Now, there weren't that many people on the train, right?

Like, at least on that car, all I could see in the pictures, and again, it's limited, but I only saw maybe three or four people there.

There may have been more.

I agree with you, though.

Like, you see what happens when we actually do have a really recent example of someone doing exactly what Jason wants and what I would want a guy to do, especially a Marine, to step up and stop this from happening.

And the man was dragged by our legal system to a position where he nearly had to spend the rest of his life in prison.

I mean,

it's insanity to get fully between

senses on that.

The difference between that one and this one, though, is that

the guy was threatening.

Yeah.

This one,

he killed somebody.

Right.

Well, the thing is,

I think that, but it's the opposite way.

I mean, the debate with Penny was, should he have recognized that this person might have just been crazy and not done anything?

Maybe he hadn't actually acted yet.

He was just saying things.

things and, you know,

he didn't wind up stabbing someone.

This is a situation where these people have already seen what this man will do to you, even when you don't do anything to try to stop him.

So if this woman, who's, you know, again, looks to be

an average American woman across the aisle steps in and tries to do something,

this guy could easily turn around and

just make another pile of dead bodies next to the one that already exists.

And I, you know, whether that is an optimal solution for our society, I don't know that that's helpful in that situation.

Sarah, can you go to yesterday's sound sheet and see if you can find from yesterday, we didn't get a chance to play it, a guy in England who is it, was it Tommy Robinson?

Is he the guy who's in and out of jail?

Yeah.

Okay.

So Tommy Robinson,

there was a protest in his favor, And,

you know, the police were called, and they were trying to arrest people.

And there was one guy who was talking to, I don't know, a reporter or just a podcaster or somebody.

And

he was asked, you know, how can you stand here?

And

you're not even wearing a mask.

So they're going to come to your house and get you.

You have it?

Let's play that in 60 seconds.

You have to listen to this because it's, again,

sheepdog.

Sheepdog.

Back in just a a second.

First, let me tell you about the burn-a-launcher.

Sometimes you don't need to win a fight.

You just need to end it, you know, and end it fast.

A burn a launcher, in today's world,

I don't understand why more people don't get a burn a launcher.

I don't know why you,

even if you're against guns, this is the perfect defense for your kids if they're going to college.

Everyone over 18 should have a burn a launcher, honestly.

It's a self-defense device.

It looks just like a firearm, but it fires pepper balls and kinetic rounds and tear gas rounds, and it stops them right in their track.

I mean, this guy, I mean, you know, you might have gotten everybody else because it's an enclosed small area, but you would have hit this guy with tear gas.

He would have been down.

He wouldn't have been doing anything.

And it's legal in all 50 states.

No permit needed.

No background check.

Nothing.

You can carry it with confidence.

You can store it with peace of mind.

And, you you know, if trouble ever comes, you know,

you've got the situation under control.

And this is a prime example of this.

If somebody would have had to burn a launcher, you know, I don't know what the laws of carry are in North Carolina.

Charlotte, North Carolina, right?

I get my Carolina's always screwed up.

But notice neither of you answer which Carolina it was.

But,

you know, I don't know what the carry is, but everybody should have one of these.

Everyone should have one of these.

It's the most effective self-protection tool I've ever seen.

10 seconds.

Back to the show.

So, are we seeing fewer of these or more of these types of people?

Listen to this guy interviewed in the streets

in England.

Well,

you know, trouble is all around him.

Listen to him.

I don't hide my opinions.

I'm a man.

Why would I hide who I am?

Why would I say I'm ashamed of my nation or my people?

If I put a mask on my face, I'm saying I'm wrong.

I'm saying I'm ideologically faulted.

That's what that means.

I'm an Englishman.

I don't wear a mask.

I show my face, I say my name.

I say, come and get me.

Because I'm correct.

That's all that matters.

Wars aren't won by soldiers.

Wars are won by thoughts.

Wars are won by ideology, by heart, not by the moral high ground.

Not by soldiers.

Soldiers fight the battles.

Good for them.

Obviously, I support them.

But that's not the thing that wins a war.

Winning a war comes from moral certainty.

And that's what England's got.

Moral certainty.

And that's what all these people have.

Moral certainty.

They know they're civilized.

They know that they gave that to the world.

They know that they are free and that everybody in the entire world has a debt of gratitude to every Englishman for their freedom.

So no, I don't hide my face.

I don't hide my name.

And I sure as hell aren't ashamed to talk on your camera.

Isn't that great?

I mean, that's just awesome.

that is awesome are we seeing more of these people or fewer of those people fewer by far and that's what concerns me when the amount of the proportion of sheepdogs diminishes and they go away never ends well for society i will tell you though at the same time we saw none of these people five years ago we saw no one like that five years ago

Now you're seeing them all over the world.

And again, you know, the proportion is, you're probably right.

I mean, we're seeing uprisings all over the world, and we're seeing, you know, there are thousands of people behind him, you know, and here's one guy.

But,

but you're also seeing a UK that is well farther advanced than we are.

So where the UK is over.

Oh, yeah.

And where they are, that's the direction they're pushing us in.

I mean,

I was supposed to bring my daughter when my or my granddaughter.

When my grandkids turn 12, I've told them I'll take you.

I'll take you to see something that you want to see.

Wherever you want to see it, whatever you want to see, I'll take you.

Grandpa and I, grandpa and you will go and see, and I'll take you someplace.

And my granddaughter wants to go to Paris.

And I'm supposed to take her.

Her birthday is

this month.

And I'm supposed to take her sometime, you know, on a school break.

And

I keep keep wondering, I mean, is it going to make it?

Can we go to Paris?

Can we go to France and see it and be safe?

How long does France have before it just falls into a sinkhole?

You know, the same with England.

I'm more concerned about England.

England is, because the people there are pushing back.

They're not pushing back.

In France, they're pushing back because

France is, you know, the government is saying, we're going to cut some of your holidays.

You're going to have to work more.

And that's why they're in the streets.

In England, they're in the streets because they know their country is being taken from them.

They know that the government is violating all of the most basic rights that an Englishman has.

And that's why they're standing up and pushing back.

And I'm very concerned because

the police are not backing down.

You know, they just,

the governments just keep pouring more fuel on these fires.

Welcome to the Glenn Beck program.

Tonight, on my Wednesday night TV special, tonight at nine,

years of progressive manipulation and democratic control has wreaked havoc with crime in American cities all over the country: in Minnesota, North Carolina, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles.

President Trump has cleaned up Washington, D.C.

The stats are shocking.

We're going to give those to you tonight.

Crime is down across the board, but could this be done in other American cities?

Constitutionally, can it be done?

We're going to find out tonight.

I'll show you what the Constitution says.

Is there anything the President can do?

You might be surprised.

And today is the 30th day of, you know, quote, occupation of

D.C.

He could declare a state of an emergency for 30 days.

Now Congress has to extend that if he wants the National Guard to stay there because Congress is in charge

of,

and so is the President in charge of Washington, D.C.

And so, we'll see what is coming next and how they're going to handle this constitutionally.

We'll cover all of that tonight.

Trump's war on Democrat-run crime havens.

Can he save our cities tonight, Wednesday night special, 9 p.m.

on Blaze TV and also on my YouTube channel at youtube.com/slash Glenn Beck.

I'm, you know, I'm really concerned because

if we don't get control of our cities, we don't have anything.

Although I do not, I wouldn't, I wouldn't welcome this from a president that I didn't vote for.

And just because he's my president, I, you know, I want the Constitution followed by my president because I don't want him to set a precedent.

So the other guy, other side president comes in and he's like, no, I can take in, I can just go into Dallas and I can just control Dallas.

I want to make sure we're playing constitutional rules.

What surprised you most, Jason, about putting this show together tonight when you're doing all the research?

I think what surprised me the most is how I felt afterwards about sending the National Guard into some of these cities.

I was looking at it as, well, we don't really have to, but there's other things we can do.

I actually put together a huge chalkboard that we just scrapped for tonight because we didn't end up not having, having the time.

Yeah.

But on how to incorporate like on a more massive scale what the untouchables did back in the day going after capone and as i mean the untouchables did it the correct way they did it constitutionally um and as long as we're doing it constitutionally i don't have a problem with it well i mean i well that this did was probably the second thing that surprised me is there is a constitutional way he can do this now it's obviously different than washington dc

um if he was going to do something like this in chicago or let's say charlotte uh for that matter he would have to, there's three different sections on how he could invoke the Insurrection Act.

And that's the only way he can do it.

Pasa Comitatus does not allow it unless you invoke the Insurrection Act.

And I think you could make that case in places like Chicago, that they are in insurrection.

Insurrection means you are violating the civil rights of American citizens because you're not enforcing the laws or you are

perpetrating

civil rights crimes on

citizens.

And so then the federal government has the responsibility to step in and take care of that.

And I have a feeling they're going to make the case that you can do that because

they're trying to stop ICE.

They're trying to subvert the federal government from doing its constitutionally mandated job in protecting the civil rights, the life and property of citizens because these cities are not arresting

these criminals.

I have a feeling that's the case he's going to make, and that would work, would it not?

That absolutely would work.

So, what you're referencing is Section 253 of the Insurrection.

Of course, I was.

Of course, I was.

You knew that, Stu, right?

Oh, yeah.

You were thinking 253 immediately when I was.

You know, it's funny.

At first, I thought, is it Section 251?

It's not 251.

It's ridiculous.

It's 253.

It's It's so funny.

I remember when I was dumb like that.

Well, actually, 251 is 251 is the one for real.

I mean, this is actual section 251 is the one section where the president

has to respond, I mean, is in response to the state's request for National Guard.

That's 251.

Now,

he needs to be asked for that.

Well, the other two sections, 253 and 253, 252 and 253, he doesn't need consent for those last two.

And they're completely different.

Civil rights and insurrection, correct?

Well, 252 is if rebellion makes federal law enforcement impractical.

253 to protect constitutional rights when states fail or refuse to act.

And I think both of those come into play.

And I think he could make a case.

I mean, it's going to be challenged by the courts, obviously, but I think he could make a very strong case that both of those are.

He can invoke both of those.

I'm pretty hesitant in opening this door, Glenn.

And I know you are as well.

You're worried about it.

And I'm also pretty hesitant to speculate as to how this might be done if it is attempted.

We just don't know.

And it's weird to get down these roads because you just don't know.

I want to see what he presents, and we'll see at that time whether it's constitutional or not.

Hang on just a second.

Hang on a second.

I want to clarify something.

I am just as concerned as you are.

Yes, but I don't want constitutional loopholes.

I want what the Constitution says.

And those two, 252 and 253, do say

that if these things are happening, he doesn't need to ask for permission.

Right.

How do you interpret those?

I think it's easily interpreted this way.

You apparently do not.

Well, yeah,

I'm worried about sort of this.

And I'm not accusing President Trump of this because, as we've said, he has not even proposed any of these things yet.

These are just, this is just a bunch of people talking about stuff.

But there is a new, you know, chat gpt constitutionalism i've noticed uh mostly on the left uh some some of it creeping into the right where it where you know you kind of like well is this constitutional and your ai says no and you say well give me the best argument if you were to say that it was and then that's the one we keep hearing you know well if we if we put it this way and we we call this that and we do this with this and if student loans are part of the of something that we pass for soldiers after 9-11 and and all of these different justifications we get.

A lot of that's going on right now, so I'm very, very skeptical of it.

But I do ask, Glenn, because obviously, you and I are,

we're always talking about section 251 of the Insurrection Act, a big, big thing that we're discussing.

I'm a little weaker on 252 and 253, which is what we should be talking about right now.

But go ahead with your 251.

But let me make a serious point on 251, which is

we do have states.

that are red states that agree with Trump that we can get approval from red state governors to go into blue state cities with these types of solutions that aren't part of a constitutional question because of how clear it is when you're asking from a governor to this to the federal government, hey, please come in here and help us with this.

You avoid all those constitutional questions.

You help a red state, not Illinois or not, you know, some state that can't stand Donald Trump.

It doesn't seemingly want the help.

You help a red state with a problem area and you help the citizens of that red state.

I mean, to me, that's a much more direct line if you're going to do something like this.

Go to the governor and get the approval to go in there and do these things.

I would lean that way if this was a direction that you were going to go.

I think,

personally, I think that's extraordinarily valuable and valid, and it is less controversial, yes.

But I feel just as strong, from what I I understand of 252 and 253, I do feel

it is clear that because they are thwarting the federal government's law enforcement capability, okay, that's what they're doing.

They are saying spy on ICE, stop ICE, rat on ICE, publish pictures of their faces.

That is a federal law enforcement agency.

And if they are making it impossible for them to to conduct their law enforcement, that's 252, is it not?

Yes.

Yes.

And then the other one is the violation of civil rights of American citizens.

That one is a little harder, but you could say, I mean, was not in Charlotte, was not that, she wasn't even a citizen, but wasn't her civil rights,

weren't they violated?

Of course they were.

But I mean, if that's the same thing.

But who's responsible for that?

If that's the standard.

I know.

You can apply this to every city at all times.

There are always murders in these cities.

There are always situations.

It's a really dangerous road to open up.

I know.

And what happened

when

I was going to say, that's why I think 252

is very clear because they are saying they are not going to allow the federal government to enforce in those cities.

They are declaring that.

That's 252.

And I think you can go in on 252.

You could make a case for 253.

I'm not as comfortable with it, but I think you could make a case for it.

Yeah, you know, 251 seems even clearer.

And it's like, I don't know, until we run out of, you know, Memphis's and,

you know,

these cities that are near the top of the list that are in red states.

I mean, these dumb points brought up by like Avin Newsome.

Oh, yeah, well, this state has a higher murder rate than my, or this city has a higher murder rate rate than my state, and it's in a red state.

Well, okay, you know, look,

those cities, of course, are all run by Democrats.

We could go through the political arguments there, but those are something, these are things that we actually can address, right?

Like, we don't have these

problems.

And I think, you know, the more that we can get involved in not

look, my goal here is to avoid these new openings in the Constitution.

And, of course, my, you know, I want to stop the crime as much as I think the president does.

And that's an important part of this, by the way, that

I believe.

I know the left doesn't agree with this.

I believe the president's motivations here are really good.

I think he really wants to stop things like this from happening.

I think his motivations here are to stop people from suffering and being victims of this stuff.

But, you know, it is important.

And considering there are easier pathways that don't open these things up, I would prefer to avoid that

conflict.

Not only

the president likes to jump in these things a a little bit more than I do, maybe.

I would prefer that as well.

I mean, I have a family who disagrees with almost everything I believe in and stand for, it seems like.

And they are just in my face all the time on, you know, he's doing exactly what you said Barack Obama was going to do.

He's marching armies into cities.

No, no, no, he's not.

But I understand

how you could see it that way if you're only being informed by, you know, NPR.

I can can understand how you see it that way and i would rather avoid that by being invited in by the governor in red states you could say no he's not he's been invited in by the governor it's all constitutional i much rather would have that you are right that's the clear easy way to do it 252 however speaks to me because

I'm tired of these these cities

being sanctuary cities and saying, we're not going going to abide by federal law.

Excuse me, you don't have the right to do that.

You don't have the right to thwart the federal government.

And if you want to make that right, then great.

Then let's go to court and find that.

Let's argue that in court.

And if you want that ability, great.

Then let's change the Constitution.

But you cannot thwart.

the federal government on federal law.

You just can't do it.

And so I'm motivated to go into those cities and those states who are just putting a thumb in the eye of the Constitution, not of Donald Trump, of the Constitution and saying, you know what, we want it our way.

We're going to do it our way.

We're not allowed that.

We're not allowed that.

But an easier, cleaner way.

is exactly the way you stated.

But we're going to debate all of this and show all of these options tonight, 9 p.m.

Glenn Beck

will be right back.

With some new developments in the 2024 election, somehow.

Kamala Harris has a new book coming out, and the first leaks are out.

Alex Thompson has the first leaks from this book.

And one of the things that was interesting about the 2024 election was Kamala Harris

never taking a step to distance herself at all from Joe Biden.

Of course, remember the most famous moment.

I remember it happened while we were sitting here on the air, and we couldn't believe that when asked, what's one thing you would say would differentiate yourself from Biden, she couldn't come up with anything.

And we said on the air at the time, this election,

how can you win an election with that position?

Everyone knows.

Just absolutely amazing.

And so now, though, now that I guess the election's over, she's thinking about her future.

She's trying to sell books.

She now is saying,

we should have done something.

She said over and over again, people inside the White House said it's Joe and Jill's decision.

We all said that like a mantra, as if we'd all been hypnotized, but this wasn't a choice that should have been left to an individual's ego.

She says, in retrospect, I think it was reckless.

She also goes after the White House communications team and Corinne Jean-Pierre, saying they were never helpful.

She says, when Republicans said I was a border czar, no one helped me push back.

She said, instead, I shouldered the blame for a porous border, an issue that had proved intractable for Democratic and Republican administrations alike.

No one around the president advocated, give her something she can win with.

And first of all, I don't know if there's anything that Kamala Harris could have won with, but secondly, it wasn't an intractable problem as we saw about 11 minutes into the Trump administration.

We'll see you tomorrow.

This is Glenn Beck.
